#405 - surprise!

Qingqian's question really stumped Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe; they didn't know how to answer.

The two looked at each other, seeing the other's calmness and tranquility in their eyes...

This calmness and tranquility might not have been anything special in ordinary times, but now, when everyone's heart was hanging in the balance because of the tribulation clouds in the sky that hadn't dissipated, this calmness and tranquility seemed somewhat out of place.

Especially since Qingqian had explained to them what the Great Tribulation of Creation was...

The two sighed. The reason why Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe could be so calm and tranquil was entirely due to the impression Qin Yi had left on them.

Looking at Qingqian's curious face, Lan Wenhao really wanted to say, "Brother Qin doesn't need us to worry. As the master of the ancient Heavenly Court, our concern is a bit superfluous..."

"When it comes to geniuses throughout history, the master of the Heavenly Court can definitely be ranked in the top three. This kind of person facing this kind of thunder tribulation is definitely no big deal."

"Other geniuses can survive it, so it definitely wouldn't make sense if Qin Yi couldn't."

Lan Wenhao could only say these words in his heart to Qingqian.

The system had placed nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine restrictions in the Little Thousand World. Anyone who entered the Little Thousand World, including Lan Wenhao, if they dared to leak even a little bit of information about Qin Yi.

The consequences would definitely be self-evident. Apart from death and the dissipation of one's cultivation, Lan Wenhao couldn't think of any better ending.

As Lan Wenhao's cultivation level rose to the Great Ascension Realm Completion, he also became more and more aware of the strength of the restrictions in the Little Thousand World.

But the more he understood, the more he knew how terrifying these restrictions were. Lan Wenhao didn't want to die young.

However, even without the restrictions in the Little Thousand World, given the relationship between Lan Wenhao and Qin Yi, it was impossible for him to casually reveal information about Qin Yi.

At this time, Lan Tianhe transmitted a voice to Lan Wenhao, "Third Brother, we're too calm; it's a bit out of place."

Lan Wenhao replied, "Yes, quickly pretend to be a little nervous; otherwise, we won't be able to explain it to Miss Qingqian."

The next second, the two immediately changed their expressions and became nervous.

But because their acting was too forceful, their nervous and worried expressions were even more out of place compared to everyone else.

Lan Wenhao said with such an expression, "Miss Qingqian, Seventh Brother and I are the kind of people who are slow to react."

"It's not that we're not worried about Brother Qin; on the contrary, it's because we're too worried about Brother Qin that we haven't reacted yet."

Qingqian looked at the two speechlessly, thinking to herself, "I'd be a fool to believe you two!"

"You really learn from whoever you're with. Everyone around Qin Yi is so full of lies..."

However, Qingqian didn't continue to ask. Lan Wenhao gave a ridiculous reason with clumsy acting, which was already giving Qingqian enough face.

Since the other party was unwilling to say the real reason, it would seem a bit low in emotional intelligence to continue asking insensitively.

Lan Wenhao asked Qingqian, "Miss Qingqian, what is the success rate of surviving this Great Tribulation of Creation?"

Qingqian said, "The success rate of surviving the Great Tribulation of Creation is basically close to zero."

"In all the heavens and myriad realms, all those who can survive this Great Tribulation of Creation are famous existences..."

Lan Wenhao said, "Then Brother Qin will definitely be able to survive this Great Tribulation of Creation."

Qingqian: "..."

Lan Wenhao's two nonsensical answers made Qingqian very tempted to ask Lan Wenhao, "Are you talking to me?"

"Why do I feel like this conversation is never on the same wavelength?"

The situation between Qingqian and Lan Wenhao attracted Ying Gan's attention.

Ying Gan brought Ying Zhi, one from not far away and one teleporting, to Lan Wenhao and the others' side.

Lan Wenhao had met Ying Gan and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Ying Gan didn't speak. Instead, he looked at Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe with some surprise, sizing them up and down.

After a long while, he said, "How did your cultivation suddenly rise to the Great Ascension Realm Completion?"

As key figures in the Lan family with close ties to Qin Yi, Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe's cultivation was naturally well-known to everyone.

However, because there was the big tree of Qin Yi in front, even Great Ascension Realm experts would treat Lan Wenhao and the others politely, without any contempt due to the large difference in cultivation realm.

As the saying goes, a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door. This saying was perfectly presented in Qin Yi's case.

Otherwise, among cultivators, which Great Ascension Realm expert would treat those who were several realms weaker than themselves as equals?

Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe's cultivation was still the same as when they first appeared in the Great Ming Dynasty not long ago. In just a few days, they had risen to the Great Ascension Realm Completion, spanning several major realms.

How could this not surprise Ying Gan!

Ying Gan didn't believe that Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe had hidden their cultivation before.

As a Half-Immortal Realm expert, Ying Gan could be said to know their cultivation like the back of his hand.

Since they hadn't hidden their cultivation, then there was only one explanation: they had broken through on their own.

But breaking through several major realms in a short period of time... this made Ying Gan somewhat unable to imagine it.

Ying Gan thought to himself, "What level of fortuitous encounter would it take to achieve this kind of progress!"

Facing Ying Gan's inquiry, Lan Wenhao didn't hide anything and said with a smile, "My Seventh Brother and I were able to raise our cultivation to the Great Ascension Realm Completion thanks to Brother Qin."

After hearing this news, Ying Gan, Ying Zhi, and Qingqian on the side were all stunned...

After a long while, Ying Gan said, "It's related to Little Friend Qin???"

Lan Wenhao said, "That's right."

There was no use in hiding this kind of thing. Any reason they made up would have loopholes, so it was better to admit it frankly.

After receiving Lan Wenhao's affirmative answer, a storm suddenly raged in the hearts of the three, and they couldn't calm down.

Qingqian had been living in the advanced instructor area, but she didn't spend much time with Lan Wenhao and the others. Plus, her focus had always been on Qin Yi.

Therefore, she subconsciously ignored the matter of Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe's cultivation.

Now that Ying Gan mentioned it, Qingqian noticed that the two had unknowingly crossed several realms to reach the Great Ascension Realm Completion.

Qingqian thought to herself, "This... what exactly did Qin Yi do? How could he possibly raise their cultivation so much in such a short period of time?"

"This method can definitely be called heaven-defying. Apart from being more common in the ancient primordial era, this method is now extremely rare in the heavens and myriad realms..."

Lan Wenhao and Lan Tianhe couldn't help but find it amusing to see the shocked expressions on the faces of the three.

Lan Tianhe transmitted a voice to Lan Wenhao, "Third Brother, wouldn't these three be scared to death if they knew that there were many other people who broke through to the Great Ascension Realm Completion with us?"

Lan Wenhao said, "Not scared to death, but they would definitely doubt their lives."

Lan Tianhe continued, "Speaking of which, after we broke through to the Great Ascension Realm Completion, we were even exempted from the thunder tribulation. Who would believe this unprecedented thing if we said it out loud?"

Lan Wenhao recalled that when they were undergoing tribulation, no thunder tribulation appeared, and couldn't help but say:

"Brother Qin is unfathomable. Without thinking, it's definitely Brother Qin's method."

What Lan Wenhao didn't know was that Qin Yi himself had always been puzzled as to why these people didn't have thunder tribulations when they broke through in the Little Thousand World.

Last time, Qin Yi originally wanted to ask the system what was going on, but he forgot to ask when the system brushed it off...
